Very very good food here. And it's open late so you can get bomb food after a late night out. The Tofu soup is the best! and the bimbim bop!

Great after hours place to eat

by IACYOO at Citysearch

Not that I have perfect grammar, it's funny to see the little mistakes asian establishments try to make using the english language.

Great place to grab a bite to eat if you want somewhere to eat late at night or after bar hopping.......

There combination meals are great, and they lie about MSG..... I have a mild allergic reaction to MSG in large amounts and clearly state that I cannot have MSG " which is stated on there placemat", yet the dish contains MSG. They could have put it in the side dishes, but they really load it up. Look back in the kitchen and you will see a huge vat of magic white power.

Also, I ate there once and found a dead fly in my food. If you read their placemat, they promise to deliver a meal that is prepared with cleanliness.

Love it!

• Pros: Good after hours place to drink
• Cons: Grammatical error on placemat and questionable cleanliness

Yuck.

I am an adventurous eater and I love tofu, but I just can't recommend BCD tofu. The restaurant has a "B" and an off smell inside. The kimchi is kinda cheap looking and tasting. There is waaay too much tofu in the soup for even a tofu lover like me. The kalbi beef short ribs weren't terrible, but they weren't good. My stomach felt off after I went here.

• Pros: Parking.
• Cons: Food.

Not so 'Well Being'

by HybridPally at Citysearch

I love Korean food. I just can't eat it all the time because my body has a very bad reaction to MSG. I jumped at the chance to eat at BCD because my friend told me they had no MSG 'Well Being' items on their menu. It seems that it's just for show. Out of the 3 visits, I got sick 3 times. The first visit I figured she forgot. The second the waitress changed and maybe she grabbed the wrong dish. The third, I specifically explained in English and Korean that I was very alergic to MSG and she assured me with an 'okay no problem.' Folks, when someone says they are allergic to something and to leave it out, leave it out, because they will know if it wasn't left out. Fortunetly, for them, I am not one who rushes to the courts every time something like this happens, but one day they will run into someone who does. So please, if no MSG is advertised, make it so. Simple as that.

The food tasted great, but for those of you who are allergic to MSG, AVOID, AVOID, AVOID.

• Pros: Great tasting food
• Cons: False advertising for no MSG and service can use a little push in the right direction.

Good Tofu soup

by StephKudus at Citysearch

I go here quite often, at least once a week. Never failed to disappoint although I just went there today and I felt the broth was very watered down compared to the other times. The yellow croaker is always a little salty but always tasty! I will go back next week, I am pretty sure its just this time which is bad, Their squid is hella awesome and their panchan is always yummy! I love their Kimchee, and its always spicy enough! :) Oh! and their Pork Bulgolgi is really good too! For the Combo I think its not worth eating it at night, rather silly to pay $2 more for the same thing just because its dinner.

• Pros: awesome broth, spicy, panchan
• Cons: $2 more for dinner -_-

Avoid everyway possible! If you live longer.

I can't believe my eyes today when I saw an article about this restaurant on LA Times.

This rest. had been suspended for 1 month last year for dirty kitchen. There were 14 health violations and you will not believe how they've operated that restaurant.

The shocking one was some of employees washed the floor mob in the sink with the bowls that serving the topu soup! In addition, they put too much MSG in it so then later make people sleepy after eating the topu soup. Most important thing is she (the owner) never announced some kind of sorry to the customers even they didn't put a note on theirs windows. (just saying parking lot repavement)...immoral ......

Don't even think to go there and eat!!!! be aware!

• Pros: Easy Parking
• Cons: Dirty service
